Presidential poll averages in battleground states as of September 26

play

The countdown to election day has begun, with just under six weeks to go.

It was an eventful election cycle, with President Joe Biden officially dropping out of the race on July 21 after debating former President Donald Trump on June 27 and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris.

Since then, both the Republican National Convention and the Democratic National Convention have taken place and the vice presidential candidates have been selected.

On September 10, Harris and Trump faced off in the first and only scheduled presidential debate before the November 5 election.

Now one question remains: Who will be the next President and Vice President of the United States, Harris and Tim Walz or Trump and JD Vance?

Although polls and polling averages vary and are constantly changing, they provide insight into the current state of the presidential campaign.
